IEEE Metropolitan Los Angeles Section – Communications Society Chapter

You want to move into a leadership role — but the path from expert to leader isn’t what it used to be. In this session, we’ll explore what it really means to evolve beyond subject-matter expertise and step into transformative leadership during an era defined by AI acceleration and what futurist Jamais Cascio coined as the BANI era: Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, and Incomprehensible. What You’ll Take Away: - A deeper understanding of why today’s volatility demands more than just competence — it demands clarity, adaptability, and relational intelligence - A mindset shift from reactive problem-solver to systems-aware leader - New language and frameworks for building trust, influence, and decision-making power in uncertain environments - Tools to define your unique value as a future-ready leader — not just a domain expert Bonus Takeaway: Learn how AI isn’t replacing leaders — it’s revealing the gaps in human leadership. You’ll leave with a mental model to augment your intuition and strategic decision-making in real time. Speaker(s): Caroline Stokes Agenda: IEEE-USA's free webinars/events are designed to help you find your next job, maintain your career, negotiate an appropriate salary, understand ethical considerations in the workplace and learn about other career-building strategies and public policy developments that affect your profession.
